YouTube Gaming is signing exclusive streaming deals with Twitch stars left and right, with the latest being Tim “TheTatman” John Betar. As was the case with DrLupo only days before, Betar claims the move will allow him to spend more time with his family.
“When I started, I had no family obligations, and I could stream a lot of hours,” Betar said, via Business Insider. “The reality is, now that I’ve got my wife and my son, it’s hard for me to stream as much as I did beforehand.”
Betar made news of his move to YouTube official with a trailer chronicling some of his, well, former professional endeavors. Check it out for yourself below.

Twitch actually commemorated Betar’s career on the platform with a lovely montage too.

With more than seven million followers, Betar is leaving behind a massive fan base on the platform. Betar’s audience will likely keep up with his escapades in games like Call of Duty: Warzone regardless, though.
“I’d say seven to eight out of 10 people coming up to me go, ‘Man, I love your YouTube,'” Betar said in the same Business Insider interview. “I have more followers on Twitch, but a lot of people day-to-day call me a YouTuber.”
